I ask because while I have been the one to check her out at the register a few times, and I guess I am a nice person, I was unsure if the pomegranate had any significance or if gift exchanges like this were a cultural norm. I may be wrong about her being Romanian though, as I’ve only had a few Romanian friends and all were guys.
She walked away before I could ask and I mean to ask her next time I see her and thank her again because it’s a nice little keychain and I always appreciate kindness. Just didn’t know if it was a cultural thing or just a “sweet old lady” thing as Americans might do a little something like that too even if it’s not a “normal” thing. She is about 50 or so I think, and that does fall into the “nice grandma” age range so I might be overthinking it.
That’s a pomegranate. She might be Armenian, not Romanian (common confusion when spoken) since the pomegranate is the national fruit of Armenia.
